Successfully reached the disaster area
"Good ......!" All the people shouted loudly, looking at the wooden bridge in front of them, everyone seemed to see hope, as long as they walked twenty kilometers south, they could reach the disaster area, and they could eat, and everyone cried with joy, some laughed and some cried!
Seeing all this, Zhao Xuanyi didn't speak, but came to Li Hanrui's side, "Tonight is a key, send a hundred people to guard the wooden bridge, if someone comes to destroy the wooden bridge at night, we will be in trouble!" ”
"Destroy the wooden bridge? You mean? Li Hanrui turned his head to look at the people who were still excited!
"A fiery arrow might do the trick!" Zhao Xuanyi said softly.
Li Hanrui showed a sneer: "What they think is beautiful!" ”
In this way, Zhao Xuanyi and everyone returned to their residence, ten cauldrons were set up outside the house, rice porridge was boiled inside, everyone was queuing up with bowls to receive rice porridge, they really worked today, they were so tired that they couldn't do it, they should be full!
Zhao Xuanyi returned to the room, and the purple kite hurriedly walked over and untied Zhao Xuanyi's cloak, "I heard that the wooden bridge has been built?" ”
"Yes!"
"Tomorrow we will be able to transport supplies to the disaster area?"
"If nothing else!"
The purple kite let out a sigh of relief, "I can finally send this dangerous box away, these days, I am scared, for fear of being snatched away!" ”
Zhao Xuanyi smiled and gently hugged the purple kite in his arms, "Thank you for your hard work!" ”
"Compared to you, I'm not hard!" Purple Kite said softly.
Zhao Xuanyi attached himself to the purple kite's ear and said softly, "Eat more in a while, you may be very tired at night!" ”
Purple Kite's face flushed and nodded slightly.
In the early morning of the next day, Zhao Xuanyi and Purple Kite hurriedly got up, and after Purple Kite served Zhao Xuanyi and got dressed, the two walked out of the room, and Li Hanrui, Shen Wei and others were waiting outside!
Zhao Xuanyi came to Li Hanrui's side, "Is Muqiao okay?" ”
"Humph! Killed almost fifty people in one night! The devil knows whose orders they follow! Li Hanrui sneered.
"Don't let up until all the carriages have passed through the wooden bridge!" Zhao Xuanyi said.
"It makes sense, Liu Bo, give an order immediately, so all the people are in the city, wait for all the materials and vehicles to cross the wooden bridge before letting them go, if there is trouble, they will be killed directly!" Li Hanrui shouted loudly.
"Yes!"
Two hundred supply trucks began to walk slowly in the direction of the wooden bridge, and the people on the street all came to both sides of the street, quietly watching the convoy move forward, no one questioned, their eyes were full of excitement, as long as they arrived in the disaster area today, they would not be starved to death, this may be the best thing!
When the convoy came to the wooden bridge, they saw nearly 100 soldiers standing on the left and right sides of the wooden bridge, guarding this important wooden bridge, and Zhao Xuanyi found that under his feet, there were still dried blood stains on the muddy ground, Zhao Xuanyi chuckled lightly and did not speak!
Tang Tianli shouted loudly, "Take one car at a time, one by one, don't be in a hurry, don't run, take your time!" Let's go! ”
When the first carriage went up, everyone's hearts tightened, for fear that the wooden bridge that had just been made would not be able to bear the weight and collapse, and the carriage pulling the grain walked slowly on the bridge, looking like the royal carriage parade through the streets, so relaxed, so comfortable, not in a hurry, as steady as Mount Tai!
When the first carriage passed smoothly, everyone was relieved and relieved, just like that, one after another, two hundred carriages took an hour to pass, and Zhao Xuanyi and everyone also passed the wooden bridge, which allowed the people to go!
All the victims followed the material wagon and continued to walk, a whole morning, it was past noon, everyone came to the disaster area, but after arriving here, everyone saw the disaster area, and their hearts were cold!
In front of a muddy plain, there are very few dry places on the ground, most of the land is stored with muddy water, and when you look at it, you can see that the ground in front of you is full of people lying on the ground, they are not afraid of moisture, they are not afraid of cold, they seem to be sleeping!
On the land, on the lawn, next to the boulder, this group of people seemed to be very tired, they were resting, in a strange posture, their expressions were very quiet, and they did not cry loudly, saying that they were hungry and in pain!
Tang Tianli turned over and dismounted, and patted a person on the shoulder, "Hey, don't sleep, what time is this?" Get up, we've got the food here! There is food to eat! ”
Tang Tianli talked to the man, but the man didn't seem to hear it, he didn't pay attention to Tang Tianli at all, Tang Tianli still wanted to speak, as if he had found something wrong, and slowly stretched out his hand to interview in front of the man's nose, Tang Tianli couldn't help but widen his eyes, and then looked at Zhao Xuanyi, shaking his head with a disappointed face!
Only then did Zhao Xuanyi understand that all the people lying on the land in front of him had all died, maybe they were drowned by the flood, maybe they were starved to death, no matter what, they couldn't come back to life!
Li Hanrui waved his hand, the convoy continued to move forward, after a kilometer of travel, seeing more corpses on the road, everyone had no other feeling in their hearts except helplessness!
When he walked into Yang Chengzhong, he saw a living person, only to see a group of soldiers wearing muddy official uniforms running over, Li Hanrui turned over and dismounted, and a group of soldiers ran in front of Li Hanrui, and hurriedly saluted, "I don't know which adult this is?" ”
"We were sent by the imperial court for disaster relief, where is your Yangcheng prefect Liu Ping'an Liu?" Li Hanrui asked.
"My lord is in the county office, and I am already sick at this time and can't come to pick up the driver, please forgive me!" The soldier bowed his head and said.
"It's okay, go and carry it over, the relief food, the silver has arrived, let him come out and receive it!"
"Yes! The little ones are going! When the soldier heard this, he turned around and flew to tell the news.
When the people heard that there was food, they gathered around, spreading the word of ten, and ten, and hundreds, and soon they saw thousands of people rushing across the street! As soon as the soldiers saw it, they immediately drew their weapons and blocked the street, "Don't go over, you can eat after your prefect signs for it, and you can't rob the imperial grain!" ”
But how can this group of people still hear these words, they all raised their sticks and rice bowls and rushed forward, and the scene became chaotic for a while, and this group of people turned into evil ghosts at this moment, rushing forward desperately one by one, just wanting to take away a bag of food!
Zhao Xuanyi gave Tang Tianli a look, Tang Tianli sighed helplessly, took out a grenade, opened the fuse, and threw it aside with a loud bang, instantly blowing up several people, and the rest of the people were also frightened by this huge sound, and the scene quieted down!
"Don't rob it, there will be food for you, whoever dares to rob it again, just wait to be beheaded!" Tang Tianli shouted loudly, hearing this, thousands of people finally quieted down!
Zhao Xuanyi glanced at this group of victims, and saw that they were skinny, their eyes were dim, and the clothes on their bodies were not even seen.
There wasn't much time, just a shout of "Get out of the way, get out of the way, get out of the way, the prefect is here!" Get out of the way! ”
A group of people squeezed through the crowd of victims, led by a middle-aged man in a red official uniform, followed by two old men in green robes, followed by dozens of officials, who came to Zhao Xuanyi and others and immediately knelt down.
"Liu Ping'an, the subordinate officials, please say hello to the adults!" Liu Ping'an knelt down and said.
Li Hanrui walked over and helped Liu Ping'an up, "Lord Liu, please get up, the food and silver from the imperial court have been delivered, please check, and the hundreds of victims of Qianqiu City in the back, they have no food to eat, and they are also here, please let someone arrange it for them!" ”
Liu Ping'an nodded gratefully, his eyes filled with tears, "Okay, good!" The next official will do it, you have worked hard, immediately arrange a place for you to rest, adults go to rest first! ”
Li Hanrui looked at Liu Bo, "Carefully settle the accounts with Lord Liu, don't be sloppy!" ”
"Yes, don't worry, general!" Liu Bo said.
Zhao Xuanyi and the others were arranged to rest in the annex, and after entering the room, a pot of hot water came up, Zhao Xuanyi was not picky, what kind of place is this? Still thinking about tea? Zhao Xuanyi poured a cup and sent it to Zi Kite's hand, "Drink some hot water!" ”
"Thank you, Uncle!" The purple kite picked it up and took a sip to remove the cold in his body, "Uncle, who are we going to give this thing to?" ”
Zhao Xuanyi shook his head: "I really don't know!" When they're done, let's ask again, now that the people of the city are waiting for a hot meal, let's not add to the chaos! ”
"Hmm!" Purple Kite nodded lightly, and couldn't help but look out the window, "I didn't expect so many people to die!" ”
Zhao Xuanyi remembered the scene he saw during the day, and he was also terrified for a while, and gently hugged the purple kite in his arms, "Do you remember what happened when you were a child?" ”
"Hmm!" The purple kite nodded slightly.
"Don't worry, it's okay!" Zhao Xuanyi said softly, his big hand patting lightly on the purple kite's fragrant shoulder!
In the capital, Nanzhu hurriedly ran into the hall with the letter in his hand, "Eldest Princess Qiyu, all the disaster relief food has been found, and it should have been transported to the disaster area today!" ”
When Zhu Yuejun heard the news, a faint smile appeared on his face, every time he found Zhao Xuanyi, Zhu Yuejun could guess the result, but after hearing it with his own ears, he still couldn't help but feel joy in his heart!
"Immediately send the moon guard to investigate and ask for documents from Liu Ping'an, the prefect of Henan!" Zhu Yuejun said.
"Yes, the maidservant will arrange it!" Nanzhu finished speaking and left!
Xilan and Meng Mei and the others were also very happy, and Xilan turned her head to look at Zhu Yuejun, "Eldest princess, since the food has been delivered to the disaster area, what about Lord Zhao?" ”
Zhu Yuejun locked her eyebrows, didn't speak for a long time, and finally put down the fold in her hand and slowly got up, "Swing, imperial study!" ”
"Yes!"
At ten o'clock in the evening, Shen Wei knocked on the door of Zhao Xuanyi's room, and Zhao Xuanyi opened the door and asked, "What's the matter?" ”
"The prefect of Liu Ping'an invites you and the second son to a banquet!" Shen Wei said.
"Banquet?" Zhao Xuanyi frowned and asked.
"Yes, that's what Liu Bo said!" Shen Wei nodded and said.
"Got it!" Zhao Xuanyi looked at the purple kite, "Put things on!" ”
"Yes!"
Zhao Xuanyi and Zi Kite, under the protection of Shen Wei and his senior brothers, came to Liu Ping'an's house, and when they walked into the hall, Zhao Xuanyi saw that Li Hanrui had already come, and he and Liu Ping'an were sitting on the table, discussing something!
Li Hanrui saw Zhao Xuanyi coming, and hurriedly got up, "Brother-in-law is here!" ”
"Second brother, Lord Liu!" Zhao Xuanyi saluted.
"General Xiangyun, right? Sit down, sit down! Liu Ping'an said very enthusiastically.
Zhao Xuanyi sat down, and when he saw the wine and food on the table, Zhao Xuanyi didn't speak, only to see that there were only four dishes on the table, one was fried wild vegetables, the other was radish with sugar, a plate of scrambled eggs, and the last one was fried green onions! It's also considered to be meat and vegetarian!
Liu Ping'an looked at the dishes on the table, and he couldn't erase it, "I'm really sorry for the two adults, now is the year of the catastrophe, there is really nothing to entertain!" ”
Li Hanrui smiled, "That's not bad, when we were guarding the frontier, we couldn't eat so well!" ”
When Liu Ping'an heard this, he hurriedly smiled, "My lord is witty, come here, bring me the wine I treasured!" ”
"Yes!" A maid brought a jar of wine.
Zhao Xuanyi took a closer look, there was still silt outside this wine jar, just dug up? After opening the beeswax on it and uncorking the bottle, the house was suddenly filled with the aroma of wine, Zhao Xuanyi couldn't help laughing, what a good wine!
The three of them were drinking and chatting about the current situation, Liu Ping'an introduced the current situation, and in the afternoon, he had already gone to inform the victims in other areas and let them all gather in Yangcheng, so that everyone was together, and it was easy to manage, and in addition to this grain, it is estimated that there is no food in other cities!
Zhao Xuanyi put down his wine glass, "Lord Liu, I have something I want to ask you!" ”
"General Zhao, please speak!"
"I have two beads here, which were sent by the emperor, do you know about this?" Zhao Xuanyi asked directly, but he didn't say what kind of beads it was!
When Liu Ping'an heard this, he hurriedly smiled, "Are they two night pearls the size of goose eggs?" ”
